“Stranger Things” S3 Teased In Viral Mall Ad

Netflix has released the first teaser for the third season of its hit series “Stranger Things,” but don’t expect to see any footage from the new episodes.

Instead, the clip comes in the form of a viral 1980s-style TV commercial advertising Starcourt Mall, a new shopping complex about to open in Hawkins, Indiana. In the clip we see Steve Harrington (Joe Keery) working at Scoops Ahoy ice cream shop alongside Robin (Maya Hawke joining the cast next season).

The series was created by The Duffer Brothers, who also serve as executive producers and direct two of the episodes – as does Shawn Levy. Filming on the third season began late April and is expected to run through to near year’s end with the episodes to premiere probably around Easter next year.
